I’ve already seen articles pointing fingers at Trump and his foreign aid cuts. Pathetic.

ANOTHER U.N. FAILURE. Why aren’t they getting rid of the terrorists? I forgot, many of them ARE terrorists.

There were a lot of high hopes for it. It was a Christian nation in the heart of Africa.

This is why Europe has a huge migrant crisis. Desert people coming in precisely for that reason.

South Sudan is supposedly about 60% Christian, 6% muslim, the rest tribal.
